System would now onwards not reject OMNI Account Type Square off orders for members in Square off related state even though the same would temporarily increase the Member s Net position, Member s Utilized Margin as well as the Member level and Market level Open Interest. After Square off order gets traded, Member is expected to place Net Down request for the required Qty. After execution of OMNI Net Down request, that OMNIBUS client Net Position would get reduced and on the basis of the Member s re-computed Net position, Member s Utilized Margin as well as Member level and Market level Open Interest would get re-computed.
